Microsoft is looking to help developers move code from the Windows-oriented .Net Framework to cross-platform .Net Core via extended API access. But whether developers should actually make the move depends on their affinity for Windows.

Microsoft has made available a beta of Windows Compatibility Pack, adding access to APIs previously available just to .Net Framework. As a result, .Net Core developers gain access to an additional 20,000 APIs. You can get Windows Compatibility Kit via a NuGet package.
